These gentlemen, imbued with Jhe spirit of fraternity and brotherly broth-erly love, immediately started a cru sade, so to speak, and on the Hth day of August, a second class, forty-four in number, was duly initiated into the order. The splendid success of both these affairs excited not only the curiosity, but the admiration of many ether eligible gentlemen both in Poca-tflio Poca-tflio and also its neighboring towns, I with the result that yesterday r third class, numbering forty-three, joined the ranks of this noble organization.
